Commands
remember
Save a variable to use later.
Description
The remember
command is used to save a variable for later use. This is useful for storing values that you want to reference in subsequent commands or steps, especially for things that are dynamic or change frequently from run to run.
The remember
command is only availble form v5.7.0
and later.
Arguments
Argument | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
output | string | the variable name you will use to recall the value later. |
description | string | A prompt describing the value you want to store. |
Example usage
Protips
- Use the output later with this syntax
${OUTPUT.my_variable}
. - The
remember
command does not persist variables across different test runs. If you need to store values for later use in different test runs, consider using external storage solutions or environment variables. - For now, the
remember
command only supports string values. If you need to store complex data types, you may useremember
multiple times for the values. This may change in a later version.
Gotchas
- The
remeember
command is only available fromv5.7.0
and later. - Ensure the variable name is unique to avoid overwriting existing variables.
- The variable name is case-sensitive, so
my_variable
andMy_Variable
would be treated as different variables.
Notes
- The
remember
command is ideal for storing values that are generated during the test run, such as timestamps, IDs, the text value of a link you might click later, or any other dynamic data.
